South Africa need 69 runs more to win their maiden ICC title in 27 years. Against Australia in the World Test Championship finale, the Temba Bavuma-led side was on the backfoot after being bundled for 138 runs in the first innings, but the Proteas showed tremendous grit and dedication to turn the tide as they are on the brink of creating history at the iconic Lord’s.
